After the series of incidents regarding sacrilege of Sikhs' holy book, Guru Granth Sahib, took Punjab to storm, an incident of torn pages of Quran, Muslims' holy book, came to light on Sunday when the Sirhind railway police filed an FIR (first information report) and decided to investigate the matter.
Uttar Pradesh-based labourer Mohammad Raqib, who lives at Rauza Sharif, had found the torn pages of the holy book, a Bengali translation copy, on Tuesday, at a railway station.
Raqib approached the Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) leader Simranjeet Singh Mann, who wrote to Fatehgarh Sahib Deputy Commissioner Kanwaldeep Singh Sangha, asking for an investigation.
The case was handed over to the Senior Superintendent of Police Jatinder Singh Khaira for probe, but he forwarded it to the railway police as the pages were found at the railway station.
The Station House Officer (SHO), Railway Police, Punjab, Vinod Kumar said the investigation will be taken forward.
